Our take on the Bicycle Rider Back Playing Cards

Bicycle Rider Back are poker-size playing cards made by the US Playing Card Company, the deck most magicians learn on and audiences recognize instantly. The Air-Cushion finish gives a snap and glide that suits shuffles, fans and card sleights, and the cards hold up through repeated handling. They are a general-purpose deck for card games, magic and cardistry rather than a premium or collector deck. Against plastic cards they wear faster and are less waterproof, and against premium casino stock they are lighter and less stiff, but the familiar back design and consistent finish keep them the default choice.
